NYC Bike Path Attack: How it Unfolded

A man in a rented Home Depot pickup truck killed eight people and injured 15 others Tuesday when he drove along a bike path near the World Trade Center memorial.

The damage unfolded in a matter of minutes.


At 2:06 p.m., suspect Sayullo Saipov rented a truck.

He rented it from a Home Depot in Passaic, New Jersey, NYPD Deputy Police Commissioner John Miller said.

He entered Manhattan via the George Washington Bridge at 2:43 p.m.


At 3:04 p.m., the driver entered the bike path at Houston Street.

He drove south on the West Street pedestrian/bike path for just under a mile, mowing down pedestrians and bicyclists.

The truck hit a school bus near Chambers Street.

The driver got out of the truck brandishing what appeared to be two firearms. They were later recovered and determined to be a paintball gun and a pellet gun.

Ryan Nash, an NYPD officer from Long Island, shot the suspect in the abdomen. He was taken into custody and brought to Bellevue Hospital.


By 3:08 p.m., more than a dozen 911 calls come in reporting the incident.

Over the course of about five minutes, police and dispatchers are captured on the scanner requesting units to West and Chambers streets and relaying information as it comes out.


The suspect was identified as Sayfullo Saipov.

A source identified the suspect as Sayfullo Saipov. He has a Florida license but was living in New Jersey.

Witnesses told police the suspect shouted “Allah Akbar,” which means “God is great,” when he exited the truck, a law enforcement source said.

Warning: Graphic video follows.

Officials call the attack ‘an act of terror.’

At a 5:15 p.m. news conference, officials called the attack an act of terror.

Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said the suspect was acting as a lone wolf, and there was no evidence of a “wider plot.”

President Donald Trump tweeted about the incident at 5:30 p.m.

… followed by First Lady Melania Trump.

The President continued with additional tweets in the hours afterward.

His official statement promised a joint NYPD and FBI investigation.

Oyster Bay campaign spending passes $1M mark

The campaign committees for the Republican and Democratic candidates for town supervisor in Oyster Bay, along with the two party committees in the town, have spent $1,094,773.92 so far on the election, more than twice what was spent in 2015. Here is a breakdown based on data from the New York State Board of Elections. The 2017 figure is not final; candidates are required to submit at least one more set of spending records that is not due until after the election. Figures for the January reports in 2015 and 2017 only include expenditures from that month, to keep the comparison fair. Read more about the campaign spending here.

Trump vs. Clinton: Relive the drama of election night 2016

Heading into election night 2016, Hillary Clinton seemed likely to make history as the first woman elected president of the United States. The Democratic nominee and former secretary of state had a resume tailor-made for the job, and faced an unpredictable newcomer to politics, Republican Donald Trump, who made his own rules on the campaign trail.

But the night became historic for a different reason, as Trump won several critical swing states and pulled off one of the biggest upsets ever in U.S. politics.

A year later, here’s a moment-by-moment look back at that dramatic night, as told through photos, videos and the social media feeds of Newsday staff, major news organizations including The Associated Press and the candidates themselves.

Social media posts are timed according to when they were posted.


8:10 p.m. Clinton the clear favorite

Early in the night, major election forecasters The New York Times and FiveThirtyEight heavily predict a Clinton win. The Democrat holds an Electoral College lead over Trump.


8:22 p.m.

Things are looking good for Clinton as the Times makes this forecast. A minute later, FiveThirtyEight says Clinton has a 75 percent chance of winning the presidency.


8:35 p.m.


8:42 p.m. Looking to make history

With slogans like “I’m with her,” Clinton’s campaign emphasized the historic nature of her campaign. On election night, thousands of her supporters stood under the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center’s actual glass ceiling, hoping their candidate would break the most significant glass ceiling of all, the presidency.


8:43 p.m.



9:14 p.m. Clinton takes New York


9:19 p.m.

9:48 p.m.

Trump tweets a memorable election night photo of himself and running mate Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, surrounded by family members.


9:54 p.m.

10 p.m. Democrats stay optimistic


10:33 p.m.


10:37 p.m. Trump begins breakthrough

Trump takes his first major battleground state — the perennial presidential bellwether of Ohio.


10:41 p.m. Clinton still trails

Even with this victory and another that would follow in Colorado, called by the AP at 10:43, Clinton trails Trump in electoral votes 168-131, according to the wire service. Trump has won 19 states to Clinton’s 12 plus Washington, D.C.


11:05 p.m. Part 2 of a 1-2 punch

Trump strikes another big blow with his win in Florida, called at 10:50. He adds its 29 electoral votes to his tally as the tide shifts.



11:11 p.m. Trump camp’s confidence grows

Fox projected Utah for Trump well before the AP would call the state for him, at 11:52 p.m.


11:12 p.m.

Trump takes another key state.


11:20 p.m.

At this point, six AP battleground states remain available on the map — Iowa, Nevada, Michigan, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — and Hillary Clinton is trailing in electoral votes.



11:36 p.m. The idea of a President Trump emerges


11:42 p.m.


11:57 p.m.

1 a.m.


1:21 a.m.


1:23 a.m.


1:31 a.m. Nearing the presidency

With Pennsylvania in his column, Trump just needs six more electoral votes to be elected president.


Just after 2 a.m. ‘She is not done yet’

Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta makes brief remarks at the Javits Center but offers no concession. “She’s done an amazing job and she is not done yet,” he says of his candidate.


2:13 a.m.


2:31 a.m. Trump elected 45th president

Trump wins Wisconsin — a state that had not gone red in a presidential race since 1984 — and in turn the White House. The AP officially calls the presidential election for Trump at 2:29 a.m.


2:39 a.m.


2:40 a.m.

Newsday’s second edition cover is sent to press.


2:44 a.m. Clinton supporters mourn

Experts in admissions and financial aid, New York State loans and grants, as well loan officers from our sponsor, Island Federal Credit Union, provided important information every incoming freshman and their parents should know. With a program so rich in useful content, Newsday and Island Federal Credit Union wanted to bring College Financing 101 to the broader public.

Serves as an assistant district attorney for Suffolk County. Includes stint as chief of homicide bureau, where he prosecuted high-profile cases, including the murder of 13-year-old John Pius in Smithtown. That case featured teenage witness and later Spota protégé James Burke, who would go on to work as Spota’s chief investigator before becoming Suffolk police’s chief of department in 2012.

1982-2001

James McCready hugs his attorney Spota after he's ruled a free man on May 25, 1993.

Works in private practice. Gains political prominence representing county law enforcement unions.

Brokers deal with County Executive Steve Levy that results in Levy not seeking a third term and turning over his $4 million campaign war chest to Spota’s office. Spota closes a criminal investigation into Levy’s fundraising. Neither Spota nor Levy has ever provided a detailed explanation of the agreement.

2013

The state’s highest court rules that Suffolk’s 12-year term limit does not apply to the district attorney’s office, allowing Spota to run for a fourth term. He again receives cross-endorsements from all major parties, defeats a GOP primary challenger and wins re-election.

2016

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone stands on the steps of Spota’s office and asks for his resignation, saying Spota was heading a “criminal enterprise” that used the prosecutor’s office to punish enemies and protect friends. Spota accuses Bellone of having a “personal vendetta against me for investigating and prosecuting people he is close to.”

2016

Newsday reports that federal prosecutors had opened a criminal investigation into the actions of Spota’s office, including handling of the Levy and Burke cases, those involving Stricoff and Rodgers, and a 2011 shooting of an unarmed cabdriver by an off-duty Nassau police officer who had been drinking heavily and was never charged.

Nick Fanti: Life in the minors

'I knew he was special'

Chapter 1

'I knew he was special'

When Nick Fanti began playing baseball as a child, he didn't want to go anyway near the pitcher's mound. By his senior year at Hauppauge High School, the lefthander was attracting scouts for his pitching ability. Now he'll try to use that to get to the majors.

Chapter 2

The Fanti famiglia

As the youngest of five and the only boy in the Fanti family, Nick Fanti said it was like he had five moms growing up. The tight-knit group made an effort to travel the 120 miles from Hauppauge to Lakewood, New Jersey, to see Fanti pitch as often as possible. Fanti also had support from his host family, the Hoffmans, who are BlueClaws season-ticket holders.

'Can you do it in three months?'

Chapter 3

'Can you do it in three months?'

Lakewood pitching coach Brian Sweeney, who's also the coach for Team Italy, asked Nick Fanti, 20, if he would be able to pitch in the World Baseball Classic in three or four years. Then in December 2016, Sweeney asked Fanti if he could pitch in the 2017 WBC in March. Fanti threw a scoreless inning and struck out Mets utility man T.J. Rivera in his lone relief appearance against Puerto Rico.

The no-hitter

Chapter 4

The no-hitter

Fanti made a name for himself on Long Island when he threw back-to-back no-hitters in high school. On May 6, he added his first professional combined no-hitter when he went 8 2/3 innings without giving up a hit against the Columbia Fireflies. His roommate, Trevor Bettencourt, closed out the game with a strikeout to preserve the no-no. Two months later, Fanti tossed a no-hitter of his own against the Charleston RiverDogs.

After the BlueClaws beat the Kannapolis Intimidators in the final game of the season, Fanti said goodbye to his teammates, fans and host family and headed back to Long Island for the offseason -- one step closer toward achieving his dream.
